Req answers for filing in the form for Tier1

[hussainkothari]

Hi All,

I am a WorkPermit holder in the UK since mid Oct07 and looking to switch to Tier1. I require a few questions answered to file my application. Could you please help?

1. In Section 1, A4, there is a section for "Home Office reference numbers". Do I need to fill in this with information from my work permit? I am not sure I have the information they are asking.

2. In Section 2, I am suppose to attach 2 photographs of myself. Do I also need to attach 2 photographs of my dependent (my spouse) whose passport I would be submitting as well?

3. In Section 3, C, they have asked for passport details. I have been into UK on my current passport. I have 2 other expired passport whose details I would mention but would not attach them. Would this be enough?

4. In Section 3, there is no section asking for my dependents (wife) passport details. Is this correct or do I have to give her details as well? She has come into UK on a different passport than her current one.

5. My 12 consecutive earnings is made in different countries.
UK: 14-10-07 to 31-03-08
India: 11-06-07 to 13-10-07
UK: 01-04-07 to 10-06-07

There is a mention in the guidance notes ( point 68 )
"68. All periods specified should be considered to refer to calendar months (i.e. 1 January - 31 January)."
Does this mean that the salary shown should start from the first of every month? Since I have been deputed in the middle of a month, should I show it the way it is? or should I show my UK salary from 01-11-07 ?

6. Is my understanding about past earning calculation correct?
Salary earned in India = x
Calculation: x * (exchange rate on 13-10-07) * (5.3)

Any help on these question would be highly appreciated.
